There wasn’t anything like a mini shrine at home, so Xia Mingxiu wrapped the protective talismans with a good quality scarf and kept them in the cabinet.
Today, at this very moment, I could no longer say that he was faking his kindness. I finally understood Xia Mingxiu for the first time.
He clearly cried secretly, but still smiled when facing the heartless Luo Yuchen. Like a good friend, he helped Luo Yuchen without saying anything for himself.
It felt like everything had reversed. I became the Xia Mingxiu from ten years ago, and he became the me from ten years ago.
In the past, Luo Yuchen and I were worried about him. Now, he and Luo Yuchen were worried about me.
It didn’t matter how sincere his ‘worry’ was. Whether it stemmed from giving Luo Yuchen face or truly from the bottom of his heart, he kept it inside and couldn’t utter even a single complaint.
I couldn’t help but think. When I was by Luo Yuchen’ side, he only had Xia Mingxiu in his eyes. Now that Xia Mingxiu was by his side, he was thinking of me.
What were Xia Mingxiu and I? His white and red rose?
Did the mosquito blood on the wall become a cinnabar mole on his heart? And did the unattainable light before his bed become a grain of rice stuck on his shirt?[1]
He was simply finding trouble on purpose.
The people by Luo Yuchen’s side would only be hurt by what he did.
I was no longer around, and Xia Mingxiu was such a good person. Luo Yuchen should cherish him.
For the people by his side, Xia Mingxiu always did well as an actor. Being kind was Xia Mingxiu’s nature. He was never like Luo Yuchen, who was unable to smile for a photo for the whole day if his mood was terrible. Xia Mingxiu always thought of others, be it in front of the screen or on the hospital bed. When he had to smile even though he wanted to cry, he would still smile brightly.
In the end, he went down the same wrong road as me. He acted strong in front of Luo Yuchen but was hurt. However, I felt that he was definitely stronger than me. He should be able to obtain what he wanted in the end.
I hope that this person who was more perfect and stronger than me could replace me and give Luo Yuchen happiness.
……
Having a break during Chinese New Year was something impossible for celebrities. From the first to the fifth day of Chinese New Year, Luo Yuchen and Xia Mingxiu were both busy attending all the various entertainment shows. They played games in front of everyone, entertaining both themselves as well as the audience.
In the blink of an eye, it was the 13th of February. Tomorrow was Valentine’s Day.
I have been waiting for the day Luo Yuchen’s new album will be released.
Though, it was a pity I couldn’t hold it with my own hands.
The video shops have already put up large posters of Luo Yuchen, waiting for the day the new album will be added to their display rack.
The poster this time was quite charming. He was dressed in a golden suit, which was different from the usual cold Luo Yuchen who always wore dark colours. He also hugged a large, fluffy dog and smiled very cutely.
My Luo Yuchen had never been so adorable. I was so close to salivating as I stared at the poster.
If I was still alive, I would definitely make this poster life-size and stick it on my wall to look at everyday.
